APYSIDKRN - sapcpe error

[Former Member]

Hi

We are upgrading our Solution Manager kernel from 64 bit Unicode 720 #122 to #402 using SAPEXE_402-20005270.SAR & SAPEXEDB_402-20005269.SAR

We get the error message below when we run APYSIDKRN SID(SM1) ARCHIVES('/usr/sap/patch/*')

APYSAP: Patch sapcpe is part of a bundle but is missing among the archives

  to be applied. Repeat this command including patch sapcpe with patch   

  level 6 or higher. For the reason of the bundle refer to SAP note      

  1573427 to see more details.           

So even when we add sapcpe_410-20005270.sar to  /usr/sap/patch we get the same error. Its like APYSIDKRN ignore the sapcpe patch.

Anyone else seen this issue?

Thanks

Annoying thing is that I can see this in the joblog

Checking patch SNMPLIB_410.SAR:trapsend_cfg -version

Checking patch sapcpe_410.sar:sapcpe version        

Checking patch tp_410.sar:tp -V                    

sapcpe 410 is seen by APYSIDKRN

Including ILE_415-20005270.SAR  made no difference.

Hi Mathew,

Have you tried to apply note 1734872? It seems to describe your problem. Basically, you need to use a newer version of APYSIDKRN, which does not have the problem with wrong interpretation of bundles. The note describes how you can do it.

Hope that helps

Thanks Thomas

Note # 1734872 looks like a great fix. However the link to the later version of apysidkrn seems to be expired. Even if we make it one long string with no gaps...

Error
Error - download expired Sorry, the file you want to download already expired or the id is incorrect.

Any idea where there is a later APYSIDKRN ?

Thanks

Hi Matthew,

Sorry, I missed to read the note completely. What you need to do to get a proper version of APYSIDKRN should be described in note 1177123. You already have a proper version of ILE.SAR as you mentioned in your note above. Create an ILE library SAP_TOOLS from it and then use APYSIDKRN from this.

Hope this has become more consistent now... Will take care of a proper description in the notes.

Regards,

Thomas
